Ong Fellows and Fellowships

Saint Louis University’s Ong Center offers fellowships to students who want to use the resources of the Ong Center and Ong Collection in their research.

As a fellow, scholars can use resources of the Ong Center and Ong Collection, borrow books from Saint Louis University libraries and secure parking permits. There may also be opportunities for fellows to be research assistants in the College of Arts and Sciences.

Fellowships cover full tuition but do not include a stipend. To apply, contact Sara van den Berg, Ph.D., at vandens@slu.edu. Applications for the fellowship are accepted on an ongoing basis.
